Break: poems on mental illness

"A stirring exploration of trauma and healing ... The collection's greatest strength is the author's wrenching honesty; it takes courage to reveal the realities of psychic pain, and these poems are braver than most in that regard." - Kirkus Reviews

Adam Levon Brown's Break is not just a raw exploration of mental illness, the poetry brings an awareness to the reader of the suffering and vulnerability of themselves as well as the author, triggering a deep seated round of self reflection and introspection. An awakening to the reality of the world around us. Adam creates this with his incredibly moving gift of poetry at its soul bearing best.
